Reading Points

 

Reading points are where equipment items are defined as having a reading point or meter. This reading point is then used to allow recording of date and time stamped readings against the equipment item.

 

Equipment > Equipment Reading points

 

 

 

The reading points scan grid returns a list of all equipment items that have associated reading points. Viewing the detail form for a reading point shows the details of the reading point and two additional tabs, one showing a history of recorded readings the other showing any associated run time control records.
